From session 2025-26, we’re removing the question paper from the National 5 Practical Cake Craft course. With the question paper removed, we’re adding a section to the assignment for learners to explain the processes and techniques they’ve used to produce and finish their cake in the linked practical activity.
We’ve provided more information on the National 5 Practical Cake Craft web page.
